You really think **** it when you are ill, and yet years ago you’d still go into work feeling shite and passing germs around.

This week was **** it.

When the apprentices are listening sagely to everything the "old hand" has to tell them, and then you realise that that "old hand" is you.

When the new apprentice called Jamie looks very bewildered when the whole depot starts singing "Jamie and the magic torch" and someone has to sit down and explain via a YouTube clip what the old people are finding so funny.

You're chatting to someone about football and you mention that Jordi Cruyff's dad was a good player and they say "who?". Sadly that happened twenty years ago!

When you have to explain who the Sex Pistols were.

When your good trousers you looked out for a wedding are older than the groom.

When you make funny noises getting up from a chair.

When you want to sit down in the pub.

When you head home from a night out and pass all the young people heading out.

When you thought you had finished peeing but no-one told your bladder.

When the security guard at Uni assumes you're a lecturer, not a student.
